Interesting report on what I listened to this month. I can’t remember the last time the top artist, song, and album were all by different artists. But @valeriejune.bsky.social and Turnpike Troubadours are perennial faves. The Golden Dregs is new to me.

I’m very much in favor of reducing wasteful government spending, but DOGE is not doing that. It is arbitrarily decimating government agencies in the most reckless, heartless way possible and important programs are being eliminated!

Pope Francis died on Monday at 88. His papacy promoted inclusivity, embracing survivors of sexual abuse by clergy members; LGBTQ Catholics; Muslim and Orthodox clerics; and leaders of developing nations, where he believed the church’s future was rooted. See Francis' life in photos: nyti.ms/4lEHXNZ

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Syrian artists have turned a vanity project of their former dictator’s wife Asmaa al-Assad into an exhibition titled “Path”. Its main theme is forgiveness and the end of war. The organisers said that the artistic event received approval from the new Islamist led Syrian government without any hurdles

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA): "I'm writing to the White House to demand who knew in advance that the President was going to, once again, flip flop on tariffs. And are people cashing in? There is just all too much opportunity for people in the White House and the administration to be insider trading"
